Comment:

 Interesting. Gave this a shot in
 [https://stem.torproject.org/tutorials/down_the_rabbit_hole.html Stem's
 tor-prompt] and it gives a syntax error...

 {{{
 >>> +signal newnym
   File "<console>", line 1
     +signal newnym
                  ^
 SyntaxError: invalid syntax
 }}}

 I've removed the interpretor from nyx's codebase. It won't be around in
 the next release, though it might make a reappearance at some point in the
 future. For now I'd suggest using Stem instead if you like this feature.
